My new track will only be a 2 post version with no brake post.
My question is- Are the 2 post tracks suppose to be wired with the power wire going to the posts or the ground wire going to the posts?

Since you would already have done 2/3 of the wiring just go ahead and wire for brakes. In the long run you'll be glad you did and the expense isn't that much more. Here is a link you might find helpful:

Nothing for nothing,but if I was spending all of the dough you're spending,I would definetly wire the track for brakes too.At least it gives people an option.

I know I like them sometimes.

Ive been reading your posts.Sounds like you have a pretty cool setup coming.Be sure to post some pics for us to see!!!!

Mike and AFX,

The reason I'm not doing it now is that I was told that with a lot of kids using the track on a commercial basis I would spend a lot of time changing blowed fuses from wrong hookups of the controller. I know that they are color coded, but I'm sure you know how kids are. I don't think it should take much to add the brakes later on down the road.

Does that explain why his cars glow in the dark?
